Just finished Heinlein's Red Planet. Does anyone remember the animated series based on it that played on Fox in like 1994? The whole time I was reading the book I kept having flashbacks to the cartoon.

I just started reading The Watchmen.

While i do sometimes find Simon Reynolds a bit irritating in his articles, I did think that was a great book.

GUARDS! GUARDS! no i'm ok that's what i was reading. Now what do i read? Island of the blue dolphins? Someone's gotta put these animals back to their right colour. I dunno that kinda seems like a waste of time. Maybe I will read about Africa. Or India.

Borrowing from a friend. Haven't started yet.

good book rhys

My girlfriend and I were cleaning out her closet and found this book from her childhood. In the front her dad wrote a note: "You're the biggest poop I know."

Anthony Bourdain is the man.






A light and enjoyable read.....not that juicy though.





Wow, I thought this was really "over rated." It started off pretty good and then it just got really boring. I was waiting for something awesome to happen and before I knew it, the book ended. Less romance crap and more action would have been nice. I still haven't seen the movie.

Finished Dirk Gently last night. Quality stuff from Adams, as always

Will be starting Hammerhead Ranch Motel by Tim Dorsey and Venus in Furs tonight.

So far, so good.

You missed the point then

Book is meh.

Today bought:

Triggerfish Twist - Tim Dorsey
Florida Roadkill - Tim Dorsey (I've already read this one but it was a nice used copy and I like to have completely collections)

That's at home. At work I'm reading this:
